Well, some folks make our job easier 'cause they can't keep their mouths shut. They tell everything to everybody. Some things we don't NEED to know.
But since they put it out there, we're gonna tell you about it in this edition of the GBB.
Marie Osmond and husband of 20 years Brian Blosil are getting divorced, reports "The Insider."
The couple have nine children together, five of them adopted.
"We ask the public and the press to please respect our privacy in this matter as we focus on caring for our children and guding them through this difficult time for our family. Though our marriage is ending, we continue to have a very amicable relationship. Our marriage has always been a faithful one and neither of us is assigning fault for the divorce. Our children, as always, are our top priority and in our deep love for them we will continue to jointly fulfill our roles as active parents in their daily lives."
Marie goes on to say that neither she nor Brian will be discussing the reasons for the breakup.
Earlier this week, Donny Osmond (who's going to be 50 this year, yikes!), announced that he and his brother may be reuniting for some kind of television special which could include Marie.
Here's a prime example of what we're talking about.
Entertainment mogul Diddy claims he and girlfriend Kim Porter had a romantic encounter in Paris that lasted 30 hours.
The couple's prelude to a sexathon began with champagne at the Eiffel Tower, Mr. Diddy told the London Mirror.
When it comes to this stuff, we believe the late comedian Richard Pryor, who claimed the term "all night long" was definitely a misnomer when it came to romantic liaisons.
In one of his concert films he said he was good for about one hour, "then I need eight hours of sleep."
Eddie Griffin says it's crazy to think he'd crash a car worth $1.5 million just for some publicity.
The comedian is fending off rumors that the accident he had Monday while practicing for a charity race was just a stunt to hawk his new film, "Redline" opening April 13.
We reported that he wasn't hurt, but apparently he was ... slightly. He's got a lump on his head and he's got neck pain.
He said a cone got stuck under the wheel of the Ferrari Enzo he was driving and the steering locked.
He tells Access Hollywood, "I shouldn't be behind the wheel in a car race. There is a reason I did acting and didn't become a NASCAR racer. We will stick to microphones."
US Weekly editors have some advice for Victoria Beckham when she makes the final move to the US: Girl, you need to wear a bra.
They're apparently tired of Miss Vicky showing off parts that are best left for her husband's viewing pleasure.
They warn the former Posh Spice that, without a supporting undergarment, her currently perky assets will eventually end up like London Bridge.
We don't have to spell it out; you all know the nursery rhyme.
Penelope Cruz seems to have found herself a new main squeeze.
NY Daily News' Rush & Molloy are reporting that the "Volver" star has hooked up with Scarlett Johansson's ex-flame, Josh Hartnett.
Hip-hop may be dead, according to rapper Nas, but actor Todd Bridges wants folks to know that he is not.
Seems there was another one of those Internet rumors that spread like wildfire, this one saying the 41-year-old actor had died of a drug-related illness.
But apparently people got Todd mixed up with somebody else with the same last name.
This former child-star has had his share of problems with substance abuse, but he's now happy, healthy and working on "Everybody Hates Chris."
Jennifer Hudson's next acting gig may be a drama with fellow Oscar-winner Forest Whitaker, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
JHud is in talks to join "Winged Creature," which in addition to our man, Forest, stars comeback kid Jackie Earle Haley, Kate Beckinsale, Guy Pearce, Troy Garrity, Josh Hutcherson and Dakota Fanning.
The "Dreamgirls" star is working on her album, so there may be some scheduling conflicts.
Girl, this is a stellar cast, so we would try to, as Tim Gunn says, make it work.

She just finished filming Spike Lee's new NBC pilot "MONY," which stands for Mayor of New York. She also got a chance to meet producers Tom Fontana and Barry Levinson.
Juliette was an extra on the Spike-directed film "Inside Man," but this time she got a principal role as a TV reporter.
Juliette calls Spike a very "hands-on" director.
"He knows what he's doing, and you can see that," she said. "He looks at everything. He's very detail oriented."
The former Discovery Channel host begins filming a movie with Ice-T next month called "Apartment 309." Ice will play a cop and she'll play the mother of a delinquent son, portrayed by Damien Lee of "Finding Forrester" fame.
You go, girl, do your thing!
The Rev. Al Sharpton, Russell Simmons and Benjamin Chavis of the Hip Hop Summit Action Network have scheduled a rally for Monday to protest the alleged assault of a 14-year-old by G-Unit rapper Tony Tayo, reports Eurweb.com.
Tony is accused of pushing and smacking the teenage son of rival Jimmy "Henchman" Rosemond, head of Czar Entertainment.
The rapper, who's real name is Marvin Bernard, has pleaded not guilty to charges of harassment and endangering the welfare of a child.
The rally needs to be just the tip of the iceberg.
How long are y'all gonna laud and turn over your money to folks who promote violence, misogyny and avarice?
We said y'all 'cause they don't get our money and they don't get our praise!
Mark Wahlberg, who can been seen in theaters now starring opposite Danny Glover in "Shooter," is set to head the cast of M. Night Shyamalan's next thriller, "The Happening," reports Variety.
He'll play a man who takes his family on the run when the world goes crazy and some natural crisis threatens to bring the world to an end. Filming is scheduled to start in August in Philadelphia.
